      Run Away As Fast As You Can From This Company

      Pros

      Absolutely None. The management styles are focused on humiliating and degrading employess at every opportunity and turning this company into a reincarnation of previous CRO where they were formerly employed before being bought out by Accelovance. The health benefits are horrible; there is no 401K match whatsoever; there are no sick days. The CEO has absolutely no background or experience in clinical research. Nepotism runs rampant.

      Cons

      I can guarantee that the review posted in August 2014 was not written by an Accelovance employee. The other negative reviews posted on this website are completely on spot with describing the working conditions and culture of this company. In the one year that I was an employee- of the 30-ish employees based in the Rockville office - 18 have resigned or been fired (particularly hostile working enviornment for African-American women). Micromanaging, belittling, and underbidding contracts so that all projects are understaffed and thus all employees are demanded to work 50-60 hours a week every week is the norm. If upper management makes an error they are the first to throw their employees under the bus to the client sponors. They take responsbility for absolutely none of the company's problems.

      : Thank you for your input, we appreciate your feedback. It’s unfortunate the changes were not implemented quickly enough to provide a positive experience for you at Accelovance. We believe our employees, at all levels, are valuable members who can contribute to helping to shape the future of Accelovance, and serve as a differentiator to other service providers in their skill, expertise, and flexibility.

In this competitive environment for talented employees, we feel the changes and improvements we are implementing will be beneficial to the professional growth of our employees, to create a fulfilling environment where employees can contribute to the continued growth of our company, and to the advancement of our clients.

      Pros

      Nice office space. Convenient parking available.

      Cons

      I worked here for over a year. Senior management is disconnected from day-to-day (mis)management of projects, client service is not valued to the degree it should be, performance reviews are a joke and completely unprofessional, extremely rampant nepotism with promotions based on favoritism vs. performance/project successes contributes to a toxic environment. Many talented individuals were either driven away based on poor operational processes or fired based on dysfunctional management decisions.

      Pros

      There are no pros -- well free parking, which is nice for the DC metro area. Otherwise, nada. Zilch. None. Horrible.

      Cons

      I've worked here long enough to see the employees turn over and over and over This is a place where rude and demeaning behavior from senior management is a feature not a kink -- it's totally normal to hear the President and CFO cursing and yelling at people. No decorum whatsoever. For those of who travel, getting reimbursed is challenging. You have to work 60-80 hours a week just to keep up because management doesn't know how manage anyone. They don't care who comes and goes. They just fill an empty seat with someone new. No real chance to advance (unless you're someone's family member). Bare minimum benefits.
